SENTENCE SERMONS
By Henry F. Cope.
There is no justice without love.
Tin and sorrow often have the same
root.
Life's rest comes in its toil.
You cannot give life to men without
giving life for them.
You do not escape from temptation
by fleeing from trial.
Love does not overlook faults: it
looks through them.
It's a poor kind of faith that you
have to have faith in.
Salvation may be sensational, but
sensation is not salvation. . .
Religion is more than a prayer in
the slot machine.
There is more good in a bad boy
than in the best of dead men.
Many of our prayers are waiting the
indorsement of our deeds.
Human hearts are the only pages on
which church history can be written.
Where the life knows no waste the
heart knows no wealth.
It takes more than pulpit thunder to
strike sin down.
The man who kicks most when the
train is late Is often the last one to get
to church.
People will always receive good ad
vice as a demonstration when ' they
would, reject it as a proposition.
When a man's head is swollen he
is sure to, get. a twist , In hisjsye.'--
The most common fallacy in this
world is the mistaking of moral specifi
cations for the materials themselves.
